Have a well pump that draws 10 amps at 230 v (1 HP - 750w), will this unit work and handle surge?

The unit is so badly constructed I cannot recommend it to anyone. It is made in Communist China and all internal components are of the lowest quality and held in the unit with hot glue. It is a fire hazard.

Yes, this transformer will work fine with your well pump. This unit is very well constructed and try it before you accepts someone elses opinion. We offer money back guarantee.

It will certainly power a sump pump but length of time will depend on the draw and the capacity of the unit. Should be able to figure it out.

if your sump pump draws less than 6 amps, the 1100 watt inverter should be able to handle the load plus the surge current. If the pump's amperage is greater than 6 amps, it is suggested to use a 1500 watt inverter. Divide the wattage of the pump by 120 to determine the amperage-- this will be the steady-state amperage without considering the surge amperage.

yes-I manage my water heater for time of use and it works perfect.The only thing you might want to check if your amperage draw isreal high . I doubt your pump motor is over 5 HP so it would be it would be more than adequate.

Yes it will, my well pump is 220 volts and it's fine. Use common sense, don't over do it or use to many things at the same time.

The pump has a continuous rating of 1/2 HP = 373 watts. The current is labeled on the pump as 8.5 amps, presumably at its continuous load rating. At startup you will get a momentary surge greater than the continuous rating, which occurs so instantaneously as to be of no concern. And don't worry about surge current from an imagined "overload" either, as it is impossible to stall it, because its inlet prevents large debris from getting inside and jamming the rotor. Note that on the Amazon page under Technical Details this pump is ERRONEOUSLY specified to be 1 HP @ 100.00 volts. Ignore that misinformation.

Dear customer, It will work, but you will need 2 LinkPRO`s. On eof them will give you Voltage for the second bank, but not amperage. Please call our technical support at 310-864-3131. Thank you, AC DC Marine Inc.

I believe the pump itself operates on 12vac and probably draws less than 1-2 amps. I recently purchased a replacement unit and it is still working OK.

Possibly, but only if the pump motor is 115V. It should pull something around 1120A which is less than the rated 1800W. Available plugs are all std 3 prong. Best to check your motor voltage/plug configuration first.

I think it would. It really depends on what kind of amperage your pump takes to run. This will determine if it can handle the load or not. Compare the two, if your pump is less than the inverter max load, I think you would be ok. I hope this helps you!

This unit only requires a .4 GPM flow rate to ignite. Your water pressure has little to do with it, so it will likely work just fine. That said, if your water pressure is "all over the place", you may need a new pressure tank. It has a pressurized bladder in it that helps stabilize the water pressure as the pump turns on and off. I have a well, and the water heater works great, by the way. Good luck.

Yes, thats my model #, its 7500 surge & 6000 continuous.I used it for real the first time the other day, we lost power. Worked a dream.. really happy with it, one pull and it was running.

This generator puts out 120 volts, most deep well pumps are in the well and require 240 volts to operate, if this is the case it will not work, if the pump is above ground check the voltage if it's 120 volt it will work.

You need a step down transformer--a travel transformer from Amazon could work. The Chugger pump is rated at 1.4 amps and 115 volts which translates to 161 watts of power. You will need to look for a travel power converter that steps your 230 volts AC to 120 volts AC with a power rating about double (about 300 Watts) as to not burn your converter out if pump runs at its maximum power load of 161 watts.

If the pump is 110-120 volts AC it will work. Anything powered by 110/120 VAC can be used with this meter.

Potentially, if the voltage and amperage are correctly matched. I would suggest purchasing a wall plug w/ the correct adaptor for your unit though. I use this b/c my portable pump has a direct power cord from the unit and no adaptor.
